BUT lets be positive and talk about the good side. I honestly get so much enjoyment from exercising and keeping fit, I love seeing how I can improve and feeling stronger.
I feel so confident about exercise, I'm pretty sure it's the thing I feel most confident doing.
I used to just go to the gym and do cardio for an hour and then wonder why nothing was changing.. then I discovered gym classes and different bootcamps and this brought in weights and things I hadn't tried.
Now I favour weight training and constantly trying to push myself to lift heavier! I don't exercise to lose weight or necessarily change the way I look, I really enjoy it, like people enjoy taking part in a sport. Obviously it's great when you notice differences in the way you look though!
So anyway, back to the Apple watch.. god I do ramble. The apple watch has 3 rings: stand for a minute each hour 12 times, 30 mins of exercise and then the move goals is set for you based on what you did the previous week (mine is 400 calories a day most of the time).
So yeah, this really motivates me to exercise. I try and do 5/6 days a week.. usually hanging for at least one day a week ha! But recently I've randomly set myself a challenge to close the rings every day this month.. I don't remember why but I now have to do it and so far so good! Today is my 19th day of closing all the rings.. I've never done this much!
I spend a lot of time in the classes at the gym which I love as it means I work muscles I wouldn't usually focus on (like shoulders for example) and I go to the gym so often I know the instructors and so I know it's cringy but I feel like it’s quite homey.
I also go into the 'mancave' (garage at back of house) and do my own workouts in there a lot. The boyf wants to make it his mancave but I really want a gym! So we're going to 'share' pretty sure I'm getting about 20% for the gym stuff.. which is fine with me to be honest!
I've added some pics of the sort of stuff I do in the mancave.. I improvise a lot and obviously I don't have actual qualifications in Health and Fitness so I make up the name of exercises I don't know.
Hopefully you can read when you zoom...
